    Carbonated water with whatever flavour of Mio you want! Or natural soda (I buy a brand called Zevia but I think it's only in Canada)

    Make sun tea. I like to use a blend of black tea and flavored teas - orange, raspberry or mint. I make a huge pitcher on the weekends to last during the week. Also sparkling water with lime. But I don't think diet soda is all that bad as long as you aren't drinking gallons of it every day.

    I gave up diet coke about 3 weeks ago. Cold turkey! So far so good.
    The big test was when I went to the movies.
    Drinking water with my popcorn didn't kill me. Surprise!
    I use to drink about a 2 liter a day, if not more.
    Couldn't imagine going to the store and not buying some.
    It feels a little strange. Like I forgot something.
    I decided to give it up after my doctor said it probably contributed to phylops in my colon, which then required surgery.
    Also people keep telling me that it was keeping me from losing weight.
    We shall see.

    I gave up Coke about 4 months ago, and now I drink a seltzer water for the fizz, when the need arises.

    I was addicted to coke zero, and in the end went cold turkey on it. I used to be easily able to drink 2/4 litres a day. I now have the occasional bottle and don't really like it much anymore. Been reading all the answers and was wondering what 'Seltzser water' is please? have never heard of it x

    Crystal light is key to helping me get 1.5-2gallons of water/day. I recommend the fruit punch.
